The Baptism of Jesus

Matthew 3:13-17

Then cometh Jesus from Galilee upon the Jordan, unto John to be baptized by him,

but John was forbidding him, saying, `I have need by thee to be baptized--and thou dost come unto me!'

But Jesus answering said to him, `Suffer now, for thus it is becoming to us to fulfil all righteousness,' then he doth suffer him.

And having been baptized, Jesus went up immediately from the water, and lo, opened to him were the heavens, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him,

and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, `This is My Son--the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'
